I’m curious about something. Everywhere I have lived for years with my wife have had way too high water pressure in the apartment or home. (100-110 psi) We’re on our second home now. I didn’t do anything about the first house, but I did on this one. I brought it down to 70psi.
I have learned the importance of expectation management over the years, so before I embarked on this project, I told my wife that normal pressure will feel unusual for her since she has always been used to excessive pressure. She voiced understanding, but since I lowered it, constant complaints.
To be clear, everything is functioning as expected. All fixtures giving 70 psi now.
How often do you guys get complaints like this after installing these?

. It's probly the shower she complains about most. Mine did so I did the unthinkable in Kalifornikrazy ... I removed the flow restricter. I can now go mountain biking, kayaking, fishing or whatever and ... no complaints. // There's some trooth in that 'ol sayin': "Happy wife, happy life" ... tho I've nver heard "Happy mister happy missus". // Dang, but this made my goofy Kalifornikrazy mornin' ... and, oh yeah, many manufacturers of toilets, faucets, irrigation equipment don't guarantee their products if pressure too high.
